Goals
1. To provide an opportunity in a
team atmosphere for students to experience the sport of Nordic Skiing.
2. Knowing that all team members
will start with varying abilities, to improve and grow in those abilities.
3. To participate and experience
true Nordic racing in a meet.
4. All team members will learn to
wax skis and take care of personal equipment.
Equipment requirements:
1. Nordic skis, boots and poles
We will train for both techniques in the
Nordic world. Classic and Skate. It is
possible to find one pair of skis that will do both. (good for the beginner) and one pair of boots
that is good for both. Option 2. A pair of skis for each technique. Check with local ski businesses for season
long rentals if you do not own skis. All in town are good and can help you. Bindings
on skis are not universal fit. Make sure your boots are the right system for
your skis. Try them in the store before getting them to the trails.
2. Winter clothing
A quick lesson in how to dress for
success...
- layers, layers, layers... Bottom layer
of wicking (Under Armor, Columbia, Mountain Hardware, etc. ) long underwear,
tops and bottoms. Ski tights or lightweight fleece pants, lightweight fleece
top, wind pants and jacket. Reserve the
heavy jacket for the bus. Hat and
gloves. Cotton sweat pants and sweat
shirts, jeans etc. soak up water and do not dry. They are not safe in cold
conditions. Cotton kills. Show up to
practice in these and you will not be allowed off the bus.
3. Water bottle and somehow to
carry it. Hydration packs with tubes
freeze if not worn under a jacket.
